Andrew Ripp's 'Falling Faster' is a vibrant, upbeat song that uses vivid imagery like shooting stars, waterfalls, and skydives to describe the overwhelming, joyful experience of falling in love. While the lyrics are romantic and could be interpreted as a love song to a person, many listeners also see it as a metaphor for surrendering to God's love and being swept away by His grace. The song emphasizes the thrill and abandon of trusting someone completely, and its energetic tone makes it a popular choice for weddings and celebrations. Ripp's delivery is sincere and passionate, capturing the dizzying sensation of being caught up in something greater than oneself.
Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
A shooting star, a waterfall
A speeding bullet breaking through a steel wall
A jet plane, a rocket man
You're taking me to places I have never been
You make me feel like dancing
A cannonball, an avalanche
You knock me over now I'm tumbling inside your hands
A skydive without a parachute
Never thought I would say I'm hopeless without you
Falling faster than I thought I could
You make me feel just like a young boy should
All I know is this is something good, yeah-eh
Your gravity is pulling me
You're the center of the earth and I'm a fallen tree
A wildfire, electricity
You turn me on, I can't resist
No, I could never leave
You make me feel like dancing
You make me feel like dancing
Falling faster than I thought I could
You make me feel just like a young boy should
All I know is this is something good, yeah-eh
A shooting star, a waterfall
A speeding bullet, yeah, breaking through a steel wall
A jet plane, I'm a rocket man
You're taking me to places I have never been
You make me feel like dancing
You make me feel like dancing
Oh, and I never like dancing
You make me feel like dancing
You make me feel like dancing
